This is the Same family of Silas Griffin who was married to Adeline Griffin--as they named their children after Silas' siblings and uncles--and in the 1900 Census Silas' step mother Sarah was living with him and his wife as she was then a widow." Question: Will you go to the Madisonville, Madison County, Texas genealogy website and look at a picture at an old Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery. http://www.txgenweb4.org/txmadison/fs_griffin.html My Mother that was born in Madisonville, Texas told me many years ago that the parents of James Noah Griffin came to Madisonville to visit him. His parents were John Griffin and his step-mother was Sarah Sally Crutchfield Griffin. We think (no proof) that the above it the grave for me and that they perhaps died in Madisonville. The Primitive Baptist Church is next to the small cemetery and is likely the church some of the the Madisonville Griffins attended. I know that my great-grandmother, Frances J. (Hale) Griffin, wife of James Noah Griffin, was a Primitive Baptist. I gave her old book about her church to my sister after the death of our mother, Lella Otis (Griffin) Brown. After Hale Noah Griffin and Mexie (Mathis) Griffin, my mother Lella, and James Noah Griffin and his wife Frances J. (Hale) Griffin moved to central west Texas, Coleman, to escape the mosquitoes in Madison County, my mother Lella went with her grandmother on the train from Coleman to near Abilene to atte! nd church services at a Primitive Baptist Church. I have seen that you have Sarah (Crutchfield) Griffin as dieing in Florida. Do you have a cemetery and grave site and/or possibly a picture? I do so hope that you do. I have copied all of your message and sent to my brother that is retired from the Oil Patch and lives in New Zealand. Dan is the one that introduced me to genealogy. Before he retired, he had a woman in Texas that did much of his family research via snail mail to the Far East.

Are you still out there? I am a Griffin descendant, My John Griffin married his last wife Sarah/Sally/Sallie Crutchfield. I think they died in Madisonville, Texas. There is a wooden grave marker in an old Primitive Baptist Church that says Johnny Griffin Sarah Griffin. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~txmadiso/Fellowship.txt http://www.txgenweb4.org/txmadison/fs_griffin.html -- picture of the homemade wooden marker. I'm guessing that some nice person in the church made the marker a long time ago. I think this is the son of Lewis Griffin and Martha (Boyette) Griffin. Sarah Crutchfield was John Griffin's 3rd wife. I am descended from John Griffin and I think, Elizabeth. thru their son James Noah Griffin and Francis J. "Fanny" (Hale) Griffin that both lived in Madisonville, Texas in the 1880s. James Noah Griffin and his wife Frances J. (Hale) Griffin migrated from Thomasville, GA to Madison County, TX after the end of the Civil War. The children of his brother John Griffin eventually migrated from Georgia to live with them -- Henry, William, Clementine, and Lenorah. Some of these young people can be found on the marriage records at the Madison County Texas genealogy website. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Dear Group; I have copies of two deeds in hand which I came upon while doing research on Granville Griffin of Ms. One is a deed from Jacob Young, the only survivor of James O. Young, who died at Gilead in Texas. It is witnessed by Benjamin Franklin. The other is a deed from Branch Masterson to J. W. or G. W. Griffin of Florida. The land is near Cado Peak in Callahan County in Texas. If any Griffins are interested, I'll part with them for $20 handling, or information on the ancestors of Granville Griffin who married Larah Bozeman and farmed just southwest of Cary, Ms. They are my Great-Great Grandparents. Their daughter, Rebecca, married my Great-Grandfather, B. F. Coats in 1877. Anyone interested can send me a stamped self addressed envelope to: John Coats 238 Towerhill Dr Columbia, Illinois, 62236 or call me at 618-281-5088, or 618-407-2000. I'll hang on to these for a few weeks. The researcher tells me they are valuable documents.
